Accentuates all the right curves
The thing I liked about this dress was the pedlum-style of the hip ruffles...it allowed me to skip Spanx and enjoy a wedding dinner without worrying about my tummy. I liked that the straps adjusted to fit tighter. This dress doesn’t boost your cleavage but you shouldn’t need a bra. Im rather curvy with wider hip and I felt it accentuated my curves nicely...the pendulum isn’t ‘too much’ for a curvy girl. There’s a small slit up the right side that’s just the right amount of sexy. I sized one size up from my normal 8. Pretty for a fall or winter wedding...the colors are a bit drab and deep for summer.

Unique print, very classy!
I wore this for a rehearsal dinner & felt beautiful. Once I got it zipped up past the black stripe under the boob area (with my husbands help, and several attempts) it felt perfectly snug. I wore an adhesive bra underneath...but I don't know if I really needed a bra at all. Funny thing is, I walked into the party and someone had the exact same dress on as me (see picture -I'm on the left). We got a great laugh out of it (must be a popular choice?). I do feel like it ran small. It isn't very forgiving around the tummy area (the fabric is like a tighter silk -- but still has some give). Overall, I really loved wearing it & received compliments on the pattern and style.

Elegant with a sexy edge
Loved, loved this dress! Felt like a goddess. This was my back up dress but ended up wearing it because, wow...it’s unique! Several people popped over to our table to say they loved it too. The open back style was beautiful but not over the top. The slit goes all the way up...so just be wise while walking quickly. I had no trouble dancing in it. I did use 2 safety pins to keep the front of the dress somewhat closed. Wore an adhesive bra from Target for this & it worked beautifully with the open back. The dress is BRIGHT yellow. You will stand out in a sea of black dresses! Highly recommend.
